Even a rubber ball loses Its spring, and unfortunately the National League sched-nle Isn't a two-way stretch.

So today the world champions are in a bad way. CAT NIPPED I si? I 1 '4 1 wh iav44 Li is? ''y There's still a chance that the Redbirds will retain their elasticity to the end. But this time that commendable characteristic of the Cardinals won't be enough. Not even victories tonight and tomorrow afternoon over Brooklyn would be adequate, for with 15 games to go the Dodgers now own an impressive five and one-half length lead. To catch the leaders, therefore.

the Redbirds would need a helping hand from someone else. But first they 11 have to succeed in the next two games where they failed last night. Or else all the king's horses, not to mention any National League assistance, would do them no good. Key Turned the Wrong Way. That's how critical things be came as Pete Reiser, backing few steps, grabbed Ron Northey's game-ending fly last night, giving Brooklyn a 4-to-3 victory in a key contest.

The Dodgers had seen to it that there would be no St. Louis weep of the series and, as a re sult, had made sure they would leave town tomorrow evening with no worse than a two-game edge on the decisive defeat side. Actually, the Dodgers have been getting there fustest with the mostest against the Cardinals all season, and that's an important difference over other years. At the moment the rivals have divided 20 games, and in only one of their seven series has Brooklyn lost the opener. That time, lest you've forgot, the Car dinals won four straight.

In addition, in case you choose not to remember, the only recent season in which Brooklyn played the Redbirds to a stalemate, split ting the annual 22 games, was 1941. Yes, that was the year Flat-bush won its first pennant since 1920. Bums In Name Only. So these Dodgers of Burt Shot-ton, repeatedly jumping in front against the Cardinals, have kept the champions' backs hemmed gainst the wall. Most certainly, unlike the past, they've kept the Redbirds from using them as a direct springboard to a pennant There might have been a different story in the opener of, this so-called little world series, an pener that had many of the trap- pings of an inter-league blue rib- CINCINNATI, Sept.

12 (AP) The opening game of the 1947 world series will be played in New York's Yankee Stadium but whether the curtain goes up on the big baseball show Sept. 30 or Oct 1 awaits a decision in the current National League pennant scrap between the Dodgers and the Cardinals. Should Brooklyn win) the series will open Sept. 30, but the inaugural contest will be the next day if the Cards triumph. The series schedule and other details were announced yesterday after a meeting! among Baseball Commissioner A.

B. Chandler; Larry MacPhail, president of the New York Yankees, whose team is virtually conceded the American League pennant, and representatives of the four top teams in the National League. After the series meeting, Chand ler led MacPhail into his office for a private conference with lo quacious Larry presumably about certain statements attributed to him in connection with the suspension of former Brooklyn man ager Leo Durocher a subject on which the Commissioner ordered all concerned, including MacPhail, to keep mum.

If Brooklyn Qualifies for the series, the seven games, if neces sary, will be played in as many days.

The first two games will be in Yankee Stadium, the next three on Brooklyn's Ebbets Field and the remaining two in the Yankees' park. Should St Louis win, the first two games will be played in New York Oct. 1 and 2. There will be no game the next day to per mit the teams to travel to St. Louis for the next three contests, Oct.

4, 5 and 6. Should the series go beyond five games, Oct 7 will be an open date, with the teams returning to New York for the last two games, Oct 8 and 9. Game Times Set Postponed games will be played in the same park as originally scheduled. A tie game will be played off in the same park where the seventh game is played, with a day interval for sale of tickets. Game time will be 1:30 p.m.

Catcher JOE GARAGIOLA of the Cardinals stepped on Dodger First Baseman JACKIE ROBINSON'S foot in the second inning of last night's series opener with Brooklyn. When Robinson came to bat in the first of the third there was rhubarb between the catcher and first sacker. Umpire BEANS REARDON is shown telling it to Garagiola.

A moment later Coach Clyde Sukeforth of the Dodgers came running and Reardon gave him a shove back toward his bench. Brooklyn won the game, 4-3.

Rain brought a chill of October, and, again like the reai McCoy, the faithful general-admis sion patrons crammed unreserved sections the bleachers, pavilion and upper reaches of the grand standtwo and one-half hours be fore game time. But the Cardinals, a great October ball club apparently losing out in September, didn't play world series baseball.

The Redbirds had ample oppor tunities, but they stranded 11 base-runners, hit into two killing double plays and left on five men who were in scoring position, four times with none or one out. Afield a vital play was bungled. and the pitching lacked razor sharpness. But the No. 1 failure, the reason those lapses of defense and mound couldn't be laughed off later as peccadilloes en route to victory, was that rasping inability to bomb big Ralph Branca out of Sportsman's Park in any one of four innings from the second through the sixth.

From a St Louis viewpoint, you see. the crucial game was as ex- asperating as It was exciting. two of the Dodgers' old guard: from the pennant winners of '41. Reiser and Lavagetto singled home big runs. Enos Slaughter of the Cardinals and Carl Furillo of the Dodgers were active, too, with three hits apiece.

Slaughter gave the Cardinals a running start in the second inning, slapping a hit off the glove of Branca, who played hide-and-seek with the ball and then fired it into the right field bullpen, enabling the batter to reach third. Ron followed with a long run-scoring single to right and missed a double only because he slipped while rounding first base. George Kurowski was nicked by a pitch and Marty Marion, up to sacrifice, drew a pass that filled the bases. Behrman was warming up rapidly by "then. But only one more run scored, for Joe Garagiola grounded into a double play, spiking Robinson on the right heel as he crossed first base, and Breeheen rolled to the first baseman.

Breeheen Gets Out of Trouble. Brooklyn's first two base-runners, Peewee Reese and Spider Jorgenson, dre-v passes to open the third. Here, Breeheen worked his way out of trouble, for, after Branca sacrificed, Eddie Stanky popped out and Robinson fouled out. In the home half of the Inning the Cardinals again let Branca worm his way off the hook. With one out Jones singled to left Stan Musial popped up, but Slaughter singled Jones to second, and Northey drew a walk that loaded the bases.

However, Kurowski hit into an inning-ending force play. The Dodgers made offensive noises In ths fourth, too.

Then Breeheen trot Dixi Walker on a looping fly the long leggea Marion grabbed near th foul line in shor left and Reese inea out.

The Cat's control was off. how ever, and he paid the penalty in the fifth. With two out Stanky singled, and when Breeheen went to 3 and 2" on Robinson, he was working with a full count for tne seventh time in 20 batters, Robinson, fooled by i curve, finally lifted a high foul that fell untouched near the Cardinals' bull But on the next pitch the Negro first baseman wasn't tricked. He lined a screwball into the bleachers for his tenth homer, Ihe Cardinals had another chance in their fifth when Jones sliced a double to right with one away. Branca, stopping Musial all nigni, retired Stan on an infield fly and, after walking Northey, disposed of Kurowski on a long arive to jjTirmo.

This One Frittered Too. The last of the sixth was even more promising. Kurowski walked as a starter. Marion slneled. Next, both runners advanced on Garagiola's bunt and on the play tne young catcher stepped on the left foot of Stanky, who was cov ering first base.

With the Brooklyn infield uncommonly close, Breeheen struck out on a "3-2" pitch after which Dusak grounded out Brooklyn went ahead in the seventh, which Jorgenson began with a double to right center. Branca bunted foul on a third strike, Stanky flied out and, wjth first base open, the righthanded- hittlng Robinson drew an intentional pass in favor of Pete Reis er, a lefthanded batter. But Pistol Pete slashed a run-scoring single to right though when Reiser was caught in a rundown play between first and second, Marion's quick throw to third nipped Robinson edging off toward the plate. Jones quickly tied the score, hammering a "l-l" pitch far up into the bleachers for his first major league homer. Twb outs later Northey and then was forced by Kurowski.

The Dodgers almost as hurried ly broke the tie once more. Furillo lined a single to center to open the eighth and took second on Edwards's slow grounder to Marion.1 Walker walked and Reese followed with a hard grounder deep and to the right of Marion, who scooped up the ball and with a long and quick throw to second began what might have been a double play. But Jones, pivoting, threw the ball before he had it, and all hands were safe on the error. Then when Lavagetto, batting for Jorgenson, put a fly ball single in short left, Furillo scored. Breeheen was replaced by Howard Pollet who averted further scoring by getting Branca to hit into a double play started by Jones.

Hope Rises, Falls In Eighth. Still there was hope in the Cardinals' frame when, with one down, Garagiola whacked a hit off Stanky's glove and Joe Medwiek, batting for Pollet looped a hit to short left. Branca, frequently visited by Coach Clyde Suke-forth, finally went out and Behrman came in. The swift righthanded reliefer soon was behind Dusak with a dangerous "2-0" count However, Behrman slipped away, for, swinging on the next pitch, Dusak rolled to the veteran Lavagetto almost on third base and, stepping on the bag, the infield replacement started a double play. In the ninth Brooklyn wasted two singles, and in the Cardinals' last chance Jones struck out, Musial flied out and, after Slaughter beat out a hit over second base, Northey lifted to Reiser a ball that probably will be exhibited in Brooklyn's Borough Hall.

Redbird Notes. The pitchers tonight will be George (14-4) Munger, who has won four straight, and probably Hal (3-5) Gregg, a Brooklyn righthander who hasn't started against the Cardinals this season. Money heals some wounds, anyway. Last night's crowd of 29,452 raised the Redbirds' home attendance to an all-time high of 1,091,048, with 11 more games at Sportsman's Park. The previous record of 1,061,807 was set last year.

When Robinson batted In the third inning, he and Garagiola exchanged heated words, and the catcher denied he had spiked the Brooklyn first baseman intentionally. Plate Umpire Beans Reardon, stepping between the players, had the situation in hand until Coach Sukeforth, rushing from the visitors' dugout, added some pro fanity directed at Garagiola, who bristlejaJL Reardon ordered Sukeforth to return to the Brooklyn bsMaft and when the coach hesitated, the umpire gave him a shove in that direction. SUNNERTIME is BOWLING TIME tBowlhtq (pADpAkJbAA! Where the Cardinals couldn't apply telling pressure following big-inning openings provided by 21-year-old Branca, who frequently has faltered under fire, the Dodgers, though leaving 10 men on base, scored all except their last run with timely two-out blows off Harry (The Cat) Breeheen, to whom a tight spot is a second home. There, it seems, was the ball game. By nature The Cat doesn't fold, and the Redbirds saw to it that Branca didn't either.

Now, that's not meant to be unkind evaluation of the Brooklyn pitcher's courage; in reality The Hawk, young and eager, seems to try too hard. But it's a fact that even while winning his twentieth game after two consecutive unsuccessful tries, Branca, ultimately replaced in the eighth inning, failed to finish for the twentieth time in 33 starts. Breeheen, suffering his tenth defeat missed his eighteenth game in 26 starts after a damaging error set up Brooklyn's winning run in the eighth. In seven and one-third innings each pitched, The Cat allowed eight hits. The Hawk nine.

Both walked five batters, Branca hit one and also committed a two-base throwing error. On the other hand, relief pitching, especially by Brooklyn's Ham Behrman, was highly effective. Jones Does His Stuff at Bat. The hitting star was newcomer Nippy Jones, the Cardinals' emergency second baseman who belted a single, double and a home run and then, taking an edge off his brilliance, was charged with that costly error. Not too far behind in the batting limelight were Brooklyn's Jackie Robinson, with a two-run homer, and Pete Reiser and Harry (Cookie) Lavagetto, Four Straight For Brownies; Muncrief Stars By Special Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch.

WASHINGTON, Sept 12 The Brownies had a four-game winning streak going for them today and in hopes of extending it to five in a row, which would be erasonal high, Manager Muddy Ruel will send Jack Kramer against the Nats here tonight. The eellar-dwellers polished off the Nats, 2-0, last night and owe their triumph to a splendid relief stint on the part of Bob Muncrief. Muncrief, used in rescue work seldom this year, came in at a moment's notice last night when Starter Sam Zoldak had to leave because of a sudden attack of sinus. Zoldak had hurled two hitless, scoreless innings when Ruel sounded the alert for Muncrief and the big fellow, scarcely warmed up, responded nobly. He spaced out six hits neatly and had enough to turn back a couple of late Washington scoring overtures.

All of this enabled him to deposit his seventh victory. Except for an error by Vern Stephens, the Browns played heads-up, alert ball. Stephens almost got Muncrief in a peck of trouble in the eighth when he hesitated too long on Buddy Lewis's grounder. Jerry Priddy, who had singled, went to second and Lewis was safe as Stephens, for some un- explainable reason, procrastinat ed. But Muncrief had the stuff and retired Tom McBride to ease that situation.

Again in the ninth, Muncrief showed his colors when, with the tying runs on base, he got Johnny Sullivan on a called third strike, then fanned Priddy to end the game. He was quite a pitcher, which is a reminder that the Browns have been getting sharp hurling for the last 10 days. BROWNS. WASHINGTON. AB.R.H.

Brooklyn victory over the not enough to give the Dodgers for today's second game of this Cardinals in a corner before, and Some one in the dressing room uggested to Manager Burt Shot- ton that he had a pretty good start on the series, and he coun tered: "Series! Don't say series yet.

I'm worrying about tomor row. Shotton usually is on the silent side certainly when compared with Leo Durocher but the man without a word last night was Eddie Dyer. The defeat cut him deep, and he showed it when he barred reporters from the Redbird dressing room. My, My, Such Language. "Get the hell out of here right now," ne snapped, ana i mean it." The Cardinals who had trooped in up to that point had uttered not a syllable.

The Brooklyn boys were toast ing Cookie Lavagetto ror nis game-winning single to left in the eighth inning. He wasn't sure what kind of a ball he had hit. "I don't know," he said. "A fast ball or a screw ball that didn't screw." No Dodger appeared more elated than Jackie Robinson, the fleet Negro infielder who tied the score and put the Brooks back in the game with a home run into the left field bleachers with Eddie Stanky scoring ahead of him in the fifth inning. "We got the crucial game," he said.

"But you never can tell with a hot club like the Cardinals. "Another game like this one, and I don't know. Boy! The Cards are a great team!" Robinson and Second Baseman Eddie Stanky displayed spike cuts on their shoes and said they were made by the Cardinal catcher, Joe Garagiola, but both Brooklyn players hastened to explain them as accidents. Robinson caught Garagiola at first on a double play in the sec-j ond inning. Reardon Puts Out a Fire.

As Robinson came to bat in the third, he and the Cardinal catcher started talking to each other, and Umpire Beans Reardon sprang between them. Clyde Sukeforth, Brooklyn coach, rushed out and Reardon shoved him back, twice. Kukpfnrth explained after the game that he was urging Robin- lin on orirtimpnt "I don't think Garagiola did it intentionally," Robinson said, "but this makes three times in two games with the Cardinais that its happened.
